Find And Replace Text command line utility. New & improved version of the well-known grep command, with advanced features such as: case-adaption of the replace string; find (& replace) in filenames, auto CVS edit. Moved to https://github.com/lionello/fart-it

*** Please note that the downloads here on Sourceforge are out of date! See https://gexperts.dummzeuch.de for the latest releases. *** GExperts is a free set of tools built to increase the productivity of Delphi and C++Builder programmers by adding several features to the IDE. GExperts is developed as Open Source software and encourages user contributions to the project.

The findstr is searching the words in the text and binary files in several codepages. The famouse 'grep' is very slow and get a lot memory for large binary files without ends of lines - findstr is fast and light, but it doesn't use regular expressions.

Picnix is a set of Unix-like commands for Windows. It has: cat, chmod, cp, df, diff, du, fgrep, grep, head, ls, more, mv, psort, rm, sleep, strings, tail, tee, touch, uniq, wc, which, and pmake, which is largely compatible with Gnu make, and faster.

DBMail Utilities provides a set of tools to help manage or administrate dbmail. Tools include a database mail grep and others.

OpenVMS-inspired "dir", "copy", "purge" commands that support file version numbers. "dir -resolution" makes summaries of disk usage. "rename -lower -portable" cleans up filenames. grep-like "search". "filter" maps characters, trims blanks,

A lightweight toolkit for efficient processing of XML data. The tools are analagous to the UNIX command-line text processing tools sort, grep, etc. The infrastructure includes an efficient DFA-based engine for streaming evaluation of XPath expressions.

cfgrep is an attempt to produce a grep-like program that uses regular expressions extended to describe context-free grammars. The largest part of the project is the C++ library developed to process those expressions.

Search files for a text string. Like grep but really dumbed down

mgrep is a command line tool that allows users to search text files for lines matching a given regular expression. It is similar to the well-known Unix utility, grep. As a natural extension to the single-line regular expressions, mgrep is also capable of searching for multiline patterns. mgrep is not a grep replacement, but it is intended to be grep-compatible: implemented options and behavior should be the same as those of grep. mgrep is written in C++ using the Boost.Regex library. A configure/make system is provided for Linux, but its source code should compile on all platforms that have the std and Boost.Regex libraries installed.

Grep tool for OASIS Open Document Format (ODF) files. Search content and meta streams for regular expressions.

SourceGlob is a Win32 tool for code search and visual display with code highlighting - like a visual grep tool. Windows Shell integration for fast access is provided. The current relaease is dedicated as preview.
